Nicholas was recommended to me by a close friend and I am so happy that I chose Nick to help me through my complicated divorce. He was understanding to feelings and objectives. He negotiated a settlement that in the end I feel to be fair and equitable. He always responded to my calls and emails. Much appreciation should be given to his assistant Anne that kept me organized and on schedule. Nick was supportive and compassionate throughout the entire process. I am so grateful for his help and guidance.

I had the good fortune of retaining Lydia Milone for my divorce proceedings in 2019, and I say this with the utmost respect and gratitude- Lydia is a lioness; ferocious in her client’s defense and protective of their needs and emotions in what are for them, very turbulent times.
Lydia shepherded me through one of the most difficult experiences of my life- listening to my concerns, protecting my interests and offering sage advice through the entire process. I’m eternally grateful that it was she by my side through such conflict, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone in need of assistance traversing the legal system in matters of divorce and family law.

John Jones was so great! We'd been working with another law firm to try to close on some land in upstate NY. The closing date was supposed to be in September 2020. We switched to working with John in January 2021 and he was able to do in 4 weeks what had taken the other firm over 4 months. If only we'd switched sooner, perhaps we could have avoided the extra time spent, interest paid, and all the price hikes on building materials. However we are SO SO SO pleased with how diligently John worked on our closing. He was responsive, informative, and thorough. Thanks John!
